The WB Abu Dhabi, Curio Collection by Hilton

Overview

If you hadn't already guessed from the photos, this is a Warner Brothers-themed hotel - the world's first, to be exact. And what does that mean? Well, pretty funky rooms for starters. But also, friendly characters greeting you in the restaurant. Nods to iconic TV sets (including the orange sofa and outdoor fountain from Friends). A 'dive-in' theatre where you can enjoy a swim while catching your favourite cartoons on the big screen. Oh, and you'll have access to Warner Bros. World™ Abu Dhabi with over 60 rides on offer.

Rooms

Rooms and suites at this hotel are very on-theme, with pops of colour and iconic artwork framed on the walls. You'll have all your classic amenities to hand, too, including a huge HD TV, FREE Wi-Fi, a mini fridge, an espresso machine and an iron and ironing board.

Food & Drink

Sidekicks is the main all-day dining restaurant, serving everything from BBQ wings and flatbread pizzas to wagyu beef. Keep an eye out for some friendly, cartoon faces too, because some of Warner Bros' most iconic characters are known to make an appearance in this restaurant every once in a while! Other venues include The Director's Club for a classic menu (apple pie is a dessert option - it doesn't get much more classic than that!) in a cosy setting, while The Overlook is the place to be for signature sushi and world-class cocktails with unbeatable views. And if that wasn't enough, there's also a swim-up bar so you can enjoy light bites and refreshing drinks without even having to leave the pool, and a grab-and-go café open for tea, coffee and snacks until 10pm!

Sports & Entertainment

All guests can enjoy complimentary access to one Yas Island Theme Park per day, with tons of attractions and lovable characters to keep you and the kids entertained. Warner Bros. World™ Abu Dhabi is located just a short stroll from the hotel, across the plaza, with highlights including a Flintstones log flume, The Scooby Doo Museum of Mysteries, The Joker Funhouse and high-speed, adrenaline-pumping Batman Knight Flight - not for the fainthearted!

On site at the hotel, the Matinee Pool is the perfect place to enjoy a dunk in the pool while watching a classic cartoon on the big screen at the 'dive-in' theatre. If you're looking for something a little more peaceful, then the Overlook Pool won't disappoint - with comfy, in-pool loungers right at the water's edge, a poolside bar so you won't have to venture far for a cocktail, and gorgeous views from the terrace.

Other facilities at the hotel include a (rather snazzy) fitness centre with state-of-the-art equipment, and a relaxing spa with steam rooms and hair and beauty treatments.

Just a heads up that the family pool and pool bar The Matinee, will undergo essential maintenance from 11th November 2024 to 11th February 2025. Guests will have access to the pool at DoubleTree by Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Residences, as well as DoubleTree by Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island.
